scel5525pro2 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 So ive been hearing about ultra engine but i dont fully understand it yet. I was gonna but leadwerks today as its on discount but then i heard about ultra engine replacing leadwerks? What does that meam? Does it mean that leadwerks will be discontinued in favor od ultra engine? Or will ultra engine replace leadwerks on steam and if u own leadwerks u will own ultra engine, kinda like a game doing a massive revamp. I really dont wanna make mistakes on what to buy because i want something performant, good and in lua. If it will replace leadwerks and if u own leadwerks u own ultra engine someone please tell me since leadwerks is on discount i can get it cheaper. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scel5525pro2 Posted July 11, 2023 Author Share Posted July 11, 2023 Basically, will ultra engine overwrite leadwerks or will ultra be a seperate application you need to pay for? I want to know since if ultra overwrites leadwerks i can buy leadwerks right now bc its at a discount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution IceBurger Posted July 11, 2023 Solution Share Posted July 11, 2023 Ultra Engine is a separate game engine that will require a separate payment.

Canardia Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Can we have also a boxed Collector's Edition with some action figures and stuff?

Josh Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Keys will be sent out closer to release, but I believe you can enter them pre-release and it will just unlock when the app is published.

Thank you! I just bought the steam standard one. Can't wait for it to release and use it. Is there an estimate as to when it will release? Hoping this summer break since i have allot of free time on my hands right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Thank you. Development is going fast but if I hit some snags I will take whatever time is needed to get it right. 1 1 Quote My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without.

Final question i promise: will we be able to use the 3d editor or will we have to code in our own window, import our own stuff like that. Ive seen the videos on leadwerks channel showing the api and it seemed like it was doing using visual studio code and not like the new editor which was showcased later on.

Dominic900 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Hello SCEL5525PRO2, Yes it has a visual editor. Some have been testing it (not sure who) but it is under testing as it develops. For comments on testing see the forum thread "editor feedback" under general forum. Hope this helps you. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dominic900 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 I was just going to do the same and download it but was not sure if it would run as you and I have the same pre-order. My order is non steam version. Did you download the Microsoft VS redistubutable.64.exe? you can find it on the ultra engine documentation under install/system requirements.

SpiderPig Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 I don't think any of the pre-orders are currently capable of downloading anything as Ultra is not released yet. I have the subscription which gives me and a few others access, it's in the store still, but I have no idea if Josh is still accepting new purchases of this as it will soon be redundant.

Well that's a bummer for those that pre-ordered. Maybe Josh will let some in to "beta-test" I would love to beta test this software.

Canardia Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Just to clear things up, I have the monthly subscription and Ultra Engine is fully functional with it, sure - it's not 100% ready yet, but I can already do amazing things with it, even games. Then I also ordered Leadwerks Engine just for enthusiast reasons and perhaps for some backward compatibility with older machines, and all its asset packs from Steam. And finally I bought the standalone Ultra Engine Standard Edition as a pre-order, which has not been released yet.

karmacomposer Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Will Leadwerks projects load into Ultraengine? Is there any backwards compatibility?
